"OVERWORLD.It began at 40,000 feet.
who KNOWS where it'll end?
Digital in execution....but can GO LIVE at the drop of a hat.
Steeped in art,science and politics--OVERWORLD is the backstory behind the headlines...the soundtrack to what's on satellite...what's playing in the ready room at NORAD..what's on in that Maybach with the blacked-out windows...the echoing groove you can just hear coming from that yacht out there...and it's in heavy rotation on board that G5 that just flew overhead."Band/artist history
SAS FLIGHT sk904...just after the champagne was served,recording began..the first cut,"G4at60K"was written and recorded right there--inspired by the graceful passage of a Gulfstream G4.it was quite possibly the first cut EVER recorded at 40,000 feet--and inspiration to work on the rest of the disc.We realized right away the world had changed for us--I don't think ANYONE has ever done their first recording midflight before.Thank you SAS and Yamaha!Have you performed in front of an audience?In Sweden a year ago..but since my return to the States,i've been mostly writing and recording--stepping up the ante and beginning to build toward a release soon(VERY SOON!!)So far i've got around 50 songs or so written--recorded about 30..and i come up with new stuff practically EVERY DAY(don't SLEEP on this!)
Actually,i began playing music PERIOD about 2.5-3 years ago...I was in Zurich(Switzerland) and walked into a music store..I wanted something to keep me amused during an extended stay in Europe..and in the digital music department, I met this guy Beat(kinda like Mr.Destiny--that's his REAL name by the way)and i told him i wanted a portable playing-and-recording unit that would fit in a backpack.He showed me a Yamaha QY-100,with a very tiny outboard keyboard and tiny little outboard speakers--i played that thing till closing time--then bought it and haven't looked back since.
